1 O the promises of God
Long have Satan’s might withstood,
And no pow’r of darkness o’er them shall prevail;
They are builded sure and strong
For the conflict with the wrong,
And those promises were never known to fail!

Refrain:
God’s promises were never known to fail!
No pow’r of darkness o’er them shall prevail!
They are builded sure and strong
For the conflict with the wrong,
God’s promises were never known to fail!

2 O the mighty hand of time
Fashions many a work sublime,
Yet the tide of years their splendor shall assail;
But the Word of God, this hour,
Thrills with all the old-time pow’r,
For those promises were never known to fail! [Refrain]

3 Trust those holy words to-day,
Let them guide you on life’s way,
Seek their refuge in temptation’s roughest gale;
Strength and courage they shall lend,
Pow’r from heave shall descend,
For those promises were never known to fail! [Refrain]
